rupting the data that you have recorded to it. Once the disconnect sequence is done,
the storage device must be removed and re-connected prior to recording again. If
this is not done, all of the LEDs will flash three (3) times indicating that the storage
device must be ejected before continuing.

9. To playback or edit your recording, simply connect the target USB S
to your PC or Macintosh computer and view the files on the device. The iKEY will
name the files in numerical order according to the order in which they were record-
ed. Also note that the filename reflects which file format it is in - MP3 or WAV. Simply
use your favorite audio editing application (not included) to manipulate, trim, edit,
and burn your creation to CD.

KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
1. When recording to an iPod®, especially one with a large amount of songs in its
library, you may notice a delay when starting and stopping the recording process. If
there are a large amount (1,000+) of songs in your library, you will notice that it

perfectly normal, and is a result of the iKEY preparing the file so that it may be
played back using the iPod®. This performance can be improved by either record-
ing to an iPod® that has a smaller library of songs, or by defragmenting the iPod®
itself.
2. If you are recording to a USB hard drive or to a hard-drive based MP3 player (such
as an iPod®), skipping or audio glitches may be caused by fragmented files. For best
performance, make sure that your unit has been defragmented before recording.
3. When attempting to record to an MP3 player with internal storage, keep in mind
that the iKEY will only be able to access those devices which are plug-and-play and
require no additional drivers. Units that require proprietary software to access the
files stored on the device are not supported. The vast majority of USB mass storage

devices are able to operate without additional driver software and are therefore com-
patible with the iKEY.
iPod® OPERATION NOTES:
